Hesi Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 Would never happen today William doing a full speed workout around Randwick, actually looking like he could ride, although Charles is pretty adept on a polo pony.

Imagine the wine, women and song 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
